shown are estimates based on your current speed. For
waypoints you've already passed, actual times of arrival are
shown. The 957 updates this information as you travel.
Estimated times are just estimates, which may be inaccurate if your SOG
changes, either intentionally or by passing through varying currents.
Your ETA at the last waypoint is shown at the top of the
screen. A darkened arrow connecting the right ends of two
waypoint boxes indicates you've completed that leg of the trip.
You can add waypoints to your trip at any time:
1. On the NAV LOG screen, press the APPEND WAYPT
menu key to display a chart view of the trip waypoints on
the APPEND WAYPT screen.
2. Press the CURSOR PAD to select the desired waypoint.
3. Press the SELECT WAYPT menu key, then press the
ENTER key to add the waypoint to the nav log. Note: Any
waypoints added in this manner aren't permanently
added to the original route stored in the 957. To perma-
nently change a route, you must use the 957's edit-route
function. (For details, see "Editing a route" starting on
page 92.)
4. Repeat these steps for any more waypoints you want to
add.
If you go to a waypoint or along a route by using the 957's GO TO func-
tion, the 957 automatically enters and organizes the waypoints in the nav
log.
You can reverse your trip at any time. Pressing the REVERSE
menu key on the NAV LOG screen lets you travel the trip in
the opposite direction.
